About: Animals have always been part of my life. I’ve raised five dogs from puppyhood and have worked with many breeds, ages, and personalities. I also have experience caring for cats, reptiles, and small mammals, making me a reliable choice for families with diverse pets who need patient, knowledgeable support. I offer fully open availability, providing flexible, reliable care whenever your pets need support. My schedule is built around consistency and convenience for pet parents, and every visit reflects my commitment to animal welfare. As I grow my business, I’m also working toward my long‑term dream of opening a multi‑species rescue to help even more animals thrive. I care for pets in the way that keeps them happiest and most comfortable. In your home, I follow your routines exactly—feeding, walks, playtime, enrichment, medication, and any house rules your pet already knows—so their day feels familiar and stress‑free. In my home, pets enjoy a safe, supervised environment with structured potty breaks, cozy rest areas, and plenty of attention. Whether it’s walks, drop‑ins, boarding, or overnights, I make sure every pet gets individualized care, consistent communication, and a calm, loving experience.
About: I'm newer to paid pet sitting, but I interned at a veterinary clinic, owned some pets, so I'm comfortable around animals of all kinds: dogs, cats, and small animals, including nervous ones and seniors. I can give medication if needed, and I'm also happy to help with baths and nail trims. I've spent time with both puppies and older dogs, and I adjust to whatever each pet needs. For me, caring for animals means real connection through active play, regular walks for dogs, and just paying attention to their mood and comfort. Whether it's a pup who needs to run off some energy, a cat who wants quiet company, or a small animal that needs gentle handling, I'll treat them like my own. I have a very flexible schedule, so I can build my day around a pet's routine: walks, feeding, and medication times, rather than fitting them around mine. Consistency and presence are important to me, especially for animals who do best with a steady routine. I adjust care to each pet's comfort and energy level, including 30 minutes of fetch in a fenced yard, 30- to 45-minute leashed walks, or a leashed hike if they're up for it (if the weather permits). I stay attentive to their routine and needs throughout our time together, and I also offer baths or nail trims for an additional $20 if you'd like.
About: My whole life as long as I remember I was the biggest pet lover. I had my own pets and I’ve taken care and walked the dogs of my neighborhood. I just love them. I work part time, which gives me a lot of time to do my favorite thing: pet sitting!!! I work part time and have a lot of time for my favorite hobby which is caring for these lovely creatures. I have a fenced in yard and I love walking in the woods with the doggies. I have a fenced in yard and I walk the dogs three times a day. My 2 lovely dogs will keep your dogs company. I will make sure they are spoiled.
About: Hi I’m Shannon, have a cat right now and used to have an 105lb Golden Retriever so i’m very experienced with big and small animals! I’m home from college and i’m on break so i have a lot of free time to walk dogs at any time of any day. I care for my cat and I used to have a big Golden Retriever who I would go play with and take on many walks.
“John, has come in clutch a number of times when we’ve had last minute plans (which is often for my family). He provides great updates and images that allow us to see how well he’s taking care of Marley!”
“I have booked Julia for countless walks because she takes excellent care of my puppy, ZuZu! She has always gone the extra mile to communicate with me and give ZuZu all the exercise and attention she needs. Zuzu is a very energetic dog and can be challenging to walk at times, but Julia has always been on top of doing what works best for her to get her energy out! She always sends plenty of pictures and makes sure ZuZu has what she needs before she leaves. She is awesome with having a flexible schedule and responding super quick to my last minute requests and schedule changes. I will absolutely keep using her to care for my girl!”
About: I’ve cared for my own dogs since I was young. Responsible, patient, and attentive, I love connecting with dogs beyond the bare minimum, giving them real love and attention. I am a full time student, my classes end around noon time, the latest being 1:45 on Fridays. I have a part time job as well, but my work schedule is very flexible as I can pick the days I work in advance. My home is a safe and welcoming space for dogs. I have a large, fenced backyard where they can play and explore. I live with my parents, which just means even more love for the future pups! I have a small Chihuahua who mostly keeps to herself, but if any issues arise, there’s enough space in the house to separate them. If your dog needs a crate, I can accommodate for that too!
About: I absolutely adore animals. I’ve loved them since I was little. I have four dogs and one cat. I’m very good at understanding, animals, body language, I know how to take care of reactive animals as well. I keep myself educated on all types of animals. I know how to take care of younger dogs, including senior dogs if they need special care, I will provide it. I’ve grown up pet sitting and helping people understand their animal more. All of my animals are very well taken care of. I take my dogs out for walks daily. I’ll have them run in the field and play with them. I’m currently unemployed so I have plenty of time to play and walk your pets I can be available whenever you need me mornings nights whatever works best for your schedule. Just let me know. I’ll take your dog out whenever you need me too. I will bring them for nice long walks. I will make sure they use the restroom. I’ll play with them and help get all their energy out. I will make sure they are safe and that they’re not picking up anything off the ground. I will provide care.
About: We’ve always had pets at our house and cousins’ houses growing up, and as you’ve probably seen in my pictures, I always love being around animals! I’m starting a new position in a few months, and since I love animals, I thought that pet-sitting would be the perfect thing to do in the meantime! It is definitely important to make sure that the pets are taken outside often to go to the bathroom and move around with fresh air. It’s also important to read the body language of the pet- some pets need more exercise than others.
About: I’ve had several pets all growing up, ranging from turtles, to birds, to dogs! I have had 5+ dogs that I’ve owned throughout my life! My friends and family go to me to walk/take care of their pets and/or give them advice about them. I am currently free during all time of the day! I have open availability for all week days, and could potentially be available some weekends as well. I will walk your dog for however long you need me to. I have no problem with long walks and lots of exercise as I’m usually in the gym about 5 days a week, leading me to be pretty fit and diligent for things like that. I will make sure your pet uses the bathroom, gets all its energy out, and is happy!
About: I have taken care of adult dogs and puppies since I was about 15. I have also owned dogs my entire life! Love them all I currently have two dogs of my own, but I do work from home three days a week so it makes my schedule more flexible I have two friendly dogs that love to play. One is three years old, one is one years old. And I am also comfortable being in someone else’s home and accommodating to the pets normalcy
“Daniela was such a pleasure walking our Great Pyrenees, Colby!!! He gets SO excited to see her and would come back in such a good mood. She provided excellent updates each walk and always on time and highly communicative. HIGHLY recommend Daniela!”

I work part time as a CNA, I only work a few days a week so I am available to watch your pups! I work every other weekend so i’d be available for boarding on my off weekends. I have a large yard and my dog gets taken out on a leash, I have a puppy so I am familiar with crate training and house training.
“Pat came and walked Leia again on Saturday and Leia was happy to see her. Leia was a little anxious as she had been recovering from dental surgery and had been more restricted for a couple of weeks, but Pat was able to build Leia's confidence and convince her to go further when Leia was initially reluctant. Pat is very good and patient with Leia's little quirks and helped her go further and enjoy the opportunity to go further beyond our yard. Leia was calmer and content with her walk.”
About: Hi! My name is Luci, and animals have always been a huge part of my life. As a veterinary technician student and proud dog mom to three dogs over the years, I know how much our pets mean to us. Caring for animals isn't just something I do—it's truly my passion. I love getting to know each dog's unique personality and making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. Whether that means long walks, playtime, belly rubs, or simply keeping them company, I'll care for your pet as if they were my own. Since I'm home from college for the summer, I have a very open and flexible schedule! This allows me to be available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week and on weekends. I love spending my free time with animals, so your pet will get lots of attention, care, and affection while you're away. As a veterinary technician student working toward becoming a Certified Veterinary Technician, I have a strong understanding of animal behavior, health, and safety. Creating a safe, calm, and positive environment is always my top priority. I pay close attention to each pet's individual needs and comfort level, making sure they feel secure, loved, and stress-free while in my care.
About: I’ve owned pets since my daughter was young and brought her first kitten home. I’ve been helping her to walk dogs for a couple years now. I’m retired so my schedule is fairly open. It gets me walking and outside, two things I enjoy. It helps my health and makes me feel good. Happy to walk your dog! Cannot have pets stay at my house as I have a kitty cat of my own. His name is Toby and he’s a real pain in the butt! 😂

As of September 2026, there are 5,807 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Jefferson. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Jefferson. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Jefferson.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every walker on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
